Talisman Knight

Fiction

The Last Knight film

The knight came to Earth with the legendary Knights of Iacon Talisman due to the threat Quintessa and Cybertron now posed to it. Unfortunately, his ship was shot down over Chicago by the TRF and he himself was mortally wounded. He lay unconscious until a group of human children investigated his chip and woke him. Cade Yeager, after saving the Children from the TRF, returned to help him. Unfortunately, he had been to badly wounded and was leaking energon fast, with Cade apologized for not being able to do more. Unable to complete his mission, he saw Cades compassion as a sign he was worthy of the knights honor. The knight presented the Talisman to him, declaring that it would protect him and proclaiming the ancient phrase to protect the staff. Cade, however, refused it, believing it a mere trinket offered as a thank you, saying it was not needed and that the knight should keep it. As Cade left, the knight used his last moments to bid the talisman to grow legs and find its new master before he finally died.

Unfortunately, his exchange with Cade was witnessed by the Decepticon Barricade, who reported it to Megatron, who sought the talisman to find the Staff of Merlin for Quintessa. His body was later found by TRF, which lead the human government into their own search for the Staff. His valiant sacrifice was not in vain, as the Tailisman did indeed find Cade, who subsequently found the staff and saved the earth from Quintessa.
